[QUOTE="chscag, post: 999861, member: 46727"] Don't be too overjoyed. Your troubles may just be beginning.... Water damage shows up in many ways, but usually it's a while after the spill. If I were you, I would take the MacBook apart best I could and let it dry out completely for a week. See if you can remove the keyboard as that will expose the logic board and other components to the air for drying. I don't know if your MacBook was under warranty or Apple care, (you didn't say) but any warranty you may have had is probably voided. Apple can detect water spillage and will refuse to make repairs under the warranty. Regards. [/QUOTE]
